” And what began as admira-
tion turned to love. Zulaykhah had
fallen in love with the handsome
Yusuf and she wanted nothing more
than to have him all for herself.
But Yusuf was a pious young man
who was chosen to be a Prophet of
Allah. He would commit no sin. And
so he always kept himself far away
from Zulaykhah. She was after all
the prime minister’s wife and he had
always treated Yusuf as his very
own son.
But Zulaykhah was smitten with
love for Yusuf, and she was lonely
too. One day, Zulaykhah called
Yusuf into her bedroom. She
wished to trap him there and
embrace him as lovers do. As soon
as Yusuf entered the room
Zulaykhah shut and bolted the door.
Yusuf understood what she wanted
and it was most evil indeed. “
